I think that it wasn't just about Victor remembering Sierra (remember the scene last week about them sitting at the same table?), it was about the fact that the dolls are losing their innocence.
To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

Dollhouse? What special effects are they talking about?
